0.0.1 Spotting scope, 500$ ONO
Kowa TSN-661 with wide angle 30x fixed magnification eyepiece.
The scope is an old model (bought in 2002), similar to the current TSN-601 (which goes for around 900$), but with a wider output diameter (hence more light). The eyepiece seems to be the one still sold with Kowa scopes in Australia (and goes for 450$).
The eyepiece can be swapped easily (like changing lenses on a reflex camera), but I really like that one. Unlike zoom versions, it gives a wide field of view, lots of light, and sufficient magnification in most wildlife observation situations.
Optics are in great condition (no scratches, no yellowing, no significant dust), but some the plastic is old and degraded (in particular around the eye piece), and there is a bit of plastic missing in the shading hood (does not affect performance). I do not have covers to protect the glass, I have used old socks to keep them safe.

3 Ferns and bamboos
Everything here has been through summers and winters outside, in a corner of the garden quite sheltered from wind, a bit shaded, well watered including with mist. I have used the bamboos to provide additional protection from wind and sun to the ferns. Happy to give discounts if you get several pots.
Also, I can give away elements of the automated watering system: programable irrigation controler, mist sprayers, regular sprayers, new and used pipes, plugs… Ask me about it.
